200 years have passed since the Great War ended. The Great War, a conflict to free the world from the grasp of tyranny held by Doctor Robotnik.

Robotnik's downfall marked the end of the great war and the people celebrated. The greatest of the heros was Sonic the Hedgehog.

200 years have passed and Shadow stands at the memorial to the event. As the original ultimate life form he has been untouched by the ravages of time and has lived through those two centuries.

This time he is accompanied by his seven brothers, relative youngsters who are thirty-six years old each. For them the Great War is nothing but history although it is a lesson that must be remembered.

And although they don't know it yet the next great battle begins in a few weeks with the coming of The Darkness.-----Felt like doing this for some time. This also explains why the Chaos Hedgehogs never meet the main SEGA crew, they are two centuries too late.

Hey Bluehog!Im a big fan of your work and had a question! Can you make me a pic of me in 3D? Here is a pic of what i have!(Hair,eye,etc):[link]If you can make it:THANKS! And i love the story and chars!

Will I make you a model?No, model making is a long and involved process that takes me a long time, time I'd rather spend doing something else.In the future when I can model quickly then maybe, but not yet.

Do I take requests, commissions, or trades?Under normal circumstances no. Due to the nature of how long it takes to create a 3D model I can't afford to take the time to make a lot of stuff for other people.

Project Shadow by Gerald Robotnik was a research project to create immortally. Shadow is the first step in that research. As such is is not truly immortal but ageless. If nothing kill him there is not preset time limit on his lifespan.

awesome blue! but one problem with your resoning about "This also explains why the Chaos Hedgehogs never meet the main SEGA crew, they are two centuries too late" Sliver the hedgehog was from the future, around 200 years, the same time your setting this. If you know anything about sliver you'll know what i'm getting at.

*SPOILER IF YOU DO NOT KNOW THE ENDING FOR SONIC THE HEDGEHOG ON XBOX 360/PLAYSTATION 3*Because Solaris was snuffed out and never existed that meant Iblis never existed. Without Iblis's destruction Silver's wrecked future would never happen.

Does Silver still exist in the new alternate future, until SEGA says anything that is open to the fans imagination. And even if he does he may not be the same Silver as the events of his life and time are completely different.

That said, this is an alternate future in the not so cannon world I use for my fiction.
